I earned my Master’s Degree in Social Work from the University of North Carolina Wilmington in 2018. I also received a post-baccalaureate certificate in Gender and Women’s Studies. My graduate program focused on Motivational Interviewing, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Strengths Based Solution Focused Therapy. Most recently, I served as the school social worker at Rutland Academy, where I work with children and adolescents with emotional behavioral disorders.

Prior to returning to graduate school, I spent a decade working as a birth activist and midwifery advocate. I was the president and co-founder of “Where’s My Midwife?” a non-profit organization that successfully worked to affect policy change at hospitals that were discriminating against midwifery care. I served on the Board of Directors of three national organizations: BirthNetwork National, the American Association of Birth Centers, and the Coalition for Improving Maternity Services. My experience taught me that we need to be educating young people about sex, birth, and the power of their bodies. I especially enjoy working with folks in transition - kids, adolescents, all phases of fertility and motherhood, and menopause. I am a Licensed Master Social Worker working toward becoming fully licensed under the supervision of Kate Morrisey-Stahl, PhD, LCSW, CST.
